    A knife-wielding madman, connected to a murder investigation, attacked four girls inside a Massachusetts movie theater before injuring two others at a McDonald’s during his stabbing spree on Saturday.

    The unprovoked attacks began around 6 p.m. inside the AMC Braintree 10 when the armed suspect walked into the complex, past the ticket booth and entered one of the theaters without paying.

    The suspect stabbed the four girls, whose ages ranged from 9 to 17, without saying a word, Braintree police said Saturday night .

    An AMC employee working concessions at the time of the initial stabbings described the man as wearing “an oversized trench coat, sunglasses, and a long blonde wig,” according to CBS Boston.

    After fleeing from the multiplex in a black SUV, the man drove over 30 miles to Plymouth, MA., where he is believed to have been involved in another “similar assault” at a McDonald’s.

    At around 7:09 p.m. Massachusetts State Troopers responded to the McDonald’s at the Rt. 3 Park and Ride in Plymouth, MA. where they discovered a 21-year-old female and a 29-year-old male suffering from apparent stab wounds.
